Winning studies are selected through a three-step process.The CR Forum’s Board of Directors serve as the selection committee. Herbert Pardes, MD, established and endowed the top prize, so he recuses himself from the selection process. Using the selection criteria outlined below, the committee members review all nominated studies to first identify the top 20; the list is then narrowed to the top 10 and a final review identifies the top 3 winners.

Selection criteria:

Degree of innovation and creativity involved and its advancement of the science in a specific area

Potential impact upon the diagnosis, prevention and/or treatment or increased understanding of the disease state
